CDIO In Engaging Students For Engineering Courses

CDIO In Engaging Students For Engineering Courses

C. Pham, J. Goss, H. Nguyen (2012).  CDIO In Engaging Students For Engineering Courses . 10.

Detailed outcomes up to the 4th level in the CDIO syllabus of the program are mapped into outcomes for various courses in different semesters. With given set of outcomes, a lecturer has to makes sure that students possess these outcomes within the available student and faculty time, funding and other resources. Currently, ineffective teaching methods, passive learning, lack of development of soft skills, engineering skills, and English skills, are becoming alarming issues at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT). In this paper, the authors would like to deal with this problem based on CDIO approach for a course of ‘Introduction to industrial robots’ taught at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, in which the lecturers have gone through four phases: Conceive the context, Design learning activities, Implement the learning by playing and Operate the process.
